ATTORNEY the molding B, and 38 designatesa lock screw for securing the said lower edge of the mold-Y,

ing B to the member 33. The upper portion 36 of the member 33 is parallel with the leg portion 26a of the member 26, but is spaced a short distance therefrom for receiving a horizontally extending strengthening member 39,

which latter extends throughout the entire length of the molding B. Member 39 cooperates with the upper face of member 26 to form a flat receiving face for the upper portion of the molding B,'to which the moldingis secured by means of a screw bolt 40.

4:1 designates a box-like extension of the molding B and has an inner face orfinner iiange adapted to be positioned in contact,

with the outer faces of the lower portions of the panel sections.

The pivotally mounted bracket structure, including the members 26, 29 and 33, constitutes an eificient mounting for the lower molding B and also functions to supportthe low-er edges of the panel sections 7 when the latter are positioned on the structure. ing provides for a ready application of the molding to the mounting and a removal therefrom and. in addition thereto, provides aconstruction enabling the panel sections to be re-V moved and replaced with a minimum amount of labor and expense.

l Assuming. the parts are inthe position shown by Figi, and it is desiredto remove the panel sections 7 all that is necessary to do is to remove the lscrews 38 and 40.. loosen the nut CZ, and swing the bracket structure within the molding positioned thereon, from the position shown b v Figs. l and k2 to the position shown by Fig. 3. This movement clears the` brackets of the lower edges of the panelsY and permits the molding B to also drop below the edges of the panels to rest on said brackets.

- whereupon, the panels mahv bedrawn towards the operator and upon freeing the bolts 8` may be lifted free of the structure. A replacement of the panels is easiljT` accomlplished, after Ywhich the molding is raised and the lb raoket structure swung therein' into position shown by Fig. l.

I claim:

l. In an outdoor advertising structure, the

the

Vcombination with a supportingframing,

panel sections, top and bottom molding This mountv mountings, hollow metal moldings on said mountings, one of said niountings including a pivotally supported bracket structure positioned within a molding adjacent said panels and'adapted to be swung to permit a removal of the panels. I v

2. In an outdoor advertising structure, the combination with a supporting framing, panel sections, top and bottom molding .mountinos, hollow metal moldings on said mountings, one of said mountingsincluding a'pivotally supported bracket structure positioned with a molding adjacent said panels and adaptedto'beA swung within said molding to .permit a removal of the panels.

f 3. In anoutdoor advertising structure, the. combination with a supporting framing, panel sections, a hollow top molding havingY a strengthening member disposed therein, a

4. In an outdoorv advertising structure, theY combination with a supporting framing, kp anel sections, va pivoted bottom molding mounting positioned adjacent saidpanels, a sill mold-i ing on said mounting, said mounting com prising a.. hollow bracket structure Vand a supplemental bracket member adapted forA rotation within the sill molding.,

5. In an outdoor advertising structureLthe combination with a supportingfraining,panelA sections, a pivoted bottom molding mounting positioned adjacent said panels, a sill mold-K ingon said mounting, said mounting comprising a hollow bracket 'structure and a supplemental bracket member adapted for vrotation within the sill molding, said bracket structure and bracket member having spacedapart portions, and a strengthening member adapted to be entered vbetween and clamped.4

by said spaced-apart portions. Y

6. A sign structure comprising a supporting framework, a molding designed to be mounted onV said framework, and means for securingsaid molding in position, said means Y comprising pivotally mounted members movable into or outof operative position.
